AI helps doctors find the information they need quickly by filtering hundreds of reports and documents, automating processes and preventing details from being missed. For complex tasks such as diagnosis, however, conventional AI is not reliable enough. Explainability is therefore crucial. Unlike opaque models that operate as a black box, explainable AI follows clinically acceptable reasoning and shows how a decision was reached, allowing doctors to assess whether the outcome is trustworthy.

What would it be like if your next medical treatment was faster, more precise and better tailored to your personal situation? Artificial intelligence (AI) makes that possible. The labs of the Universiteit Twente work every day on smart solutions that transform healthcare. Whether it concerns faster diagnoses or supporting doctors with complex interventions: AI ensures more efficient and future-proof healthcare!

Discover healthcare robots, smart robots, human interaction, advanced technologies and innovation in robotics with a focus on practical applications.

Explore digital transformation, automation, cybersecurity, blockchain, IoT and smart technology for a future full of technological advancements.

The algorithm avoids major surgery and improves survival rates

An AI researcher tells science communicator Lieven Scheire how he uses smart algorithms to detect cancer early.

AI can help diagnose and treat pancreatic cancer. Two young TU/e researchers talk about their project.

After obtaining her EngD in 2022, Nienke Bakx continued her research work on the use of AI for the treatment of breast cancer at the Catharina Ziekenhuis. She received her PhD for her research on September 19.

Medical engineer in training talks to Lieven Scheire about how she uses AI in the treatment of breast cancer patients.

Five promising young TU/e researchers will receive an NWO Veni grant of 280,000 euros to further develop their own research ideas over the next three years.

The Raad voor Cultuur has started an advisory process on the impact of AI on the cultural and creative sector, chaired by Prof. Dr. Martijn van der Steen. The research focuses on what AI means for the position and earning capacity of makers, and for the role of the cultural sector in dealing with AI in society. An advisory report with recommendations for both the sector and the government will be published in early 2026.

On April 10, NOLAI's teachers in residence Annelies de Mol and Kilian Geryszewski told us all about the difference between generic AI and educational AI in their webinar. More than 80 interested parties watched and listened. Watch the webinar here.

In the PersOn project, AI expert Johan Kwisthout is working on an artificial intelligence that helps doctors and cancer patients make difficult choices about treatments.

Developing artificial intelligence that detects the dangerous properties of chemicals and predicts which toxic effects they cause in humans. That is the goal of an international research project in which researchers from the Innovative Testing in Life Sciences & Chemistry professorship are participating. Specifically, the effects of chemicals on the liver, kidneys and developing brain are examined. The development of artificial intelligence contributes to the reduction of animal experiments. According to the researchers, toxicological research based on artificial intelligence is also more accurate and future-proof than research with laboratory animals. The project receives funding of more than 17 million euros from the European Commission's Horizon 2020 programme.

AI Month ends this year, but the activities do not. Together with our partners, we offer varied activities all year round.

Two projects conducting research into how AI is used in healthcare, among other things, have received a grant from the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO).

Thom Badings developed a new method that incorporates uncertainty into predictive algorithms so they can still produce a safe outcome. He will defend his PhD thesis at Radboud Universiteit on 27 March.

On 17 and 18 March 2025, as part of his visiting professorship, Danny Busch gave several guest lectures at the Faculté de droit et science politique – EUR LexSociété of the Université Côte d’Azur in Nice.

Alumna Marjan Bahari chose to study psychology and ended up as a technical specialist AI. In this interview we speak to her about her career path, current role and next challenges.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is getting better at solving complex problems, but how well does an AI model actually understand the logic behind its answers? New research tested the “analogy skills” of GPT models—or their ability to recognize patterns and connections and apply them to new situations. GPT models fall short when the problems are modified, revealing important weaknesses in their reasoning capabilities.

The 10-year initiative (2022-2032) NOLAI, with Nationaal Groeifonds financing, transforms primary and secondary education in collaboration with schools and companies. Serge Thill, co-lead of the AI team explains how his team helps teachers.

The Rijksmuseum has launched an AI-driven visual search function in its online collection. With one click, visitors can discover works of art that match in shape, colour, style and object type based on visual associations. The feature makes the collection of more than 800,000 works of art more accessible and was made possible by KPN, Bloomberg Philanthropies and the Mondriaan Fonds.
